Ohio State has found a new way to further its rivalry with Michigan. At the Ohio State College of Veterinary Medicine, a dog-walking area was installed and it features fire hydrant painted with the Michigan maize and blue and emblazoned with the Wolverines' block M.

Ohio State and VCU will meet for the first time when they play each other in the NCAA Tournament on Thursday.

The Buckeyes come into the game as the No. 10 seed playing the No. 7 seed Rams. Ohio State is led by guard D'Angelo Russell who leads the NCAA scoring for freshmen at 19.3 points per game. Russell leads Ohio State in scoring and rebounding.

VCU is in the tournament after winning the Atlantic 10 tournament. They're led by senior forward Treveon Graham, who is first on the team in points (16.3) and rebounds (7.0) per game.

Arizona and Texas Southern play before the Ohio State game at 2:10 p.m. The Buckeyes' game starts 30 minutes after the conclusion of that game. The winners of those games will play Saturday in Portland.

Ohio State is slated to play VCU in the West region on Thursday. The Buckeyes were given a No. 10 seed after going 23-10 this season. VCU is a No. 7 seed and went 26-9 this season. If Ohio State wins, they'll likely face the West's No. 2 seed, Arizona.

Ohio State may have a quarterback quandry with Cardale Jones, J.T. Barrett and Braxton Miller, but head coach Urban Meyer isn't jumping to name the starter.

Following the Buckeyes' second spring practice, Meyer said that a starter will be picked at some point, but "we're not even focused on that."

Meyer stressed he wants to see both Barrett and Miller continue to get healthy and for Jones to continue to improve. MIller is returning from a knee injury he sustained last August. Barrett was lost for the season with an ankle injury in November. Jones started the final three games of the season, including Ohio State's win over Oregon in the national title game.

It should come as no surprise, but Ohio State's D'Angelo Russell was selected by coaches and media as the best freshman in the Big Ten.

Russell led the Big Ten in scoring this season, averaging 20.3 points per game in conference games. He's the first freshman since Indiana's Eric Gordon in 2007-08 to do so. Russell also had the most made three pointers in conference play this season with 49.

He is the fourth freshman under Buckeyes coach Thad Matta to win the award, joining Jared Sullinger (2011), William Buford (2009) and Greg Oden (2007).

It's been more than a month since Ohio State won the first College Football Playoff national championship against Oregon, but now we have an official highlight reel.

The four-minute video relased by the school today features not only game highlights but offers some unique insight on the program. Quite frankly, if you're an Ohio State fan, this one will give you goosebumps.

As you'd expect, the video heavily features running back Ezekiel Elliott and quarterback Cardale Jones. It's an impressive cut up of the Buckeyes' 42-20 win.

Really, football season never stops. Ohio State may not beging it's true football season until they play at Virginia Tech on Sept. 7, but there is still plenty going on with the Buckeyes. Here are some important dates to remember:

March 10 - Spring practices begin

When Ohio State starts spring practices, we may get some indication about what the team might be doing at quarterback. Will it be Braxton Miller? JT Barrett? Cardale Jones? Ohio State has arguably the most talented quarterback group in the nation, but also the biggest question mark. Expect the quarterback situation to be the overriding storyline of OSU's spring practices.
